Keeping Children Safe Online

Published by Webmaster on

Understanding online safety is difficult for all ages. Please access the resources on this page to improve your own understanding of the risks, read some enlightening statistics, and find advice about the kinds of conversations you could be having with your children to keep them safe online.

Please don’t fall into the trap of making any of these assumptions:

  • I have parental controls set up. My child is safe.
  • My child wouldn’t access inappropriate things.
  • My child is very young; they can’t get very far online.
  • My child knows not to engage with strangers online.
  • I supervise my child’s online access and know exactly what they are accessing.
  • My child does not have a social media presence / profile.
